A Joburg woman was thrown out of a popular shisanyama joint in Tembisa, Ekurhuleni because her dress was too short and flashing her underwear.

Bonolo Nthompe, also from the sprawling township, said she was shown the door by bouncers at Imbizo-Busy Corner on Friday last week.

Nthompe, 24, said the incident happened hours after she and her friends had arrived at the popular tourist joint.

"We arrived there at 5pm. Then at about midnight I was violently thrown out because of the dress I was wearing," she said.

She said the eviction followed an argument they had with patrons sitting next to them.

"We informed Vusi, the floor manager, about the verbal abuse coming from people sitting next to us. He told us that he would tell the securities to keep an eye on the guys who were abusing us.

"The abuse continued and all of a sudden I was grabbed by security guards and pushed outside like a slut in full view of other customers.

"It happened so fast. I was dancing and the next thing I'm being shoved out," she said.
